Seriously, did the HP 420/425/440/450/465 GMs of the early Mercury Hi-Performance days have blue paint? I think they were all black.

Correct.

An HP500 Bulldog is a 540ci block, carbed, prime for supercharging.

I believe the 500HP was one of the first blue motors and as far as I can remember the 575 were with the Holley type of throttle body injection.

the 575HP 540 cu.in motor.

And are we just talking merc racing in general, or the motors that where actually painted blue? If memory serves. The 800sc, 900sc and 1000sc where painted black. They are in my old brochures anyway.

Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't the 700SC a hawk power plant...

I've surely never seen one..
